On the radius of habitable planets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The conditions that a planet must fulfill to be habitable are not precisely known. However, it is comparatively easier to define conditions under which a planet is very likely not habitable.

Habitable Zones in Extrasolar Planetary Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
If we ask the question about the possible existence of the life outside the Earth, we first have to determine the habitable zone (HZ) for our solar system. The HZ of distances between a main sequence star and an Earth-like planet is roughly defined as the range of mean orbital radii which imply moderate planetary surface temperatures suitable for the ...

ON THE HABITABLE ZONES OF CIRCUMBINARY PLANETARY SYSTEMS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2012
The effect of the stellar flux on exoplanetary systems is becoming an increasingly important property as more planets are discovered in the Habitable Zone (HZ). The Kepler mission has recently uncovered circumbinary planets with relatively complex HZs due to the combined flux from the binary host stars.

Can the EU Move ‘Beyond GDP’?

open access: yesJCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Since 2007, the European Union has devoted significant time and energy to the production and dissemination of new statistics designed to monitor social and environmental trends of various types. These initiatives have often been presented as part of a broader ‘beyond GDP agenda’, which challenges the centrality of economic growth, as measured ...

The Habitability of our Evolving Galaxy

open access: yes, 2018
The notion of a Galactic Habitable Zone (GHZ), or regions of the Milky Way galaxy that preferentially maintain the conditions to sustain complex life, has recently gained attention due to the detection of numerous exoplanets and advances made in ...

Double Trouble: Two Transits of the Super-Earth GJ 1132 b Observed with JWST NIRSpec G395H

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
The search for rocky planet atmospheres with JWST has focused on planets transiting M dwarfs. Such planets have favorable planet-to-star size ratios, enhancing the amplitude of atmospheric features.

Atlas Unplugged: Re‐Imagining the Premises and Prospects of Capitalism for Business and Society

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Atlas Shrugged, Ayn Rand’s dystopian work of fiction, became a cornerstone of libertarian philosophy and its influence continues as an articulation of contemporary capitalism. In introducing this Special Issue, we revisit its core assumptions and contradictions in order to reimagine capitalism and reflect on the potential of management studies

A Tectonic Manifesto

open access: yesPerspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, 2023
Tectonics is the scientific discipline that studies the relationship between planetary convection and surface deformation and magmatism. In recent years global tectonic regimes and planetary evolution have become foci of astronomical and planetological ...

Crafting the Ocean: The Geographies of Environmental World‐Making

open access: yesTransactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
Short Abstract The paper departs from existing analyses of ‘world making’, bringing cultural and environmental geographies into further conversation through linking theories of crafting and world‐making together, through the lens of the contemporary aquarium and nascent oceanic geographies.

Habitable exoplanet - a statistical search for life

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
IntroductionThe identification of habitable exoplanets is an important challenge in modern space science, requiring the combination of planetary and stellar parameters to assess conditions that support life.MethodsUsing a dataset of 5867 exoplanets from ...
